Operation theatre lighting system is a critical component in the operation theatre. Focusing the light to the area of surgery and varying the light intensity is manually done in currently available systems. Disruption of surgeon’s attention and possibility of infection due to non sterilized hands is a major setback of the manual controlling method. This usually requires assistants to adjust the position and intensity of the light system by commands from the surgeon. So, designing an intelligent lighting system for operating theatre which can maintain the intensity values to the required level without shadow effect to the operation area is an important requirement. Proposed system makes use of accelerators in the gloves worn by surgeon so as to track hand movements. Pre defined hand movements can be configured to move the lighting system up, down, left or right. Accelerator input is interpreted for its corresponding movement by controller at transmitter side and it is wirelessly given to the receiver side using an nRF module. At the receiver side the incoming command from the nRF is taken and suitable response generated at the motor driver by the controller to move the lighting device. In the same way predefined hand signal can be used to vary the intensity of the light by using microcontroller to drive an LED driver.

Light Interference

In an office space, an LED-based lighting system allows you to perform the function of a data transmitter. This article discusses the cost-effective design and development of a data-enabled LED driver that can transmit data along with its receiving part. In addition, this paper clearly outlines the application of the proposed VLC system in an office environment where ambient light interference is a severe issue of concern. The result shows satisfactory lighting characteristics in general for this area in terms of average horizontal illuminance and illuminance uniformity. At the same time, to evaluate real-time and static communication performance, Arduino interfaced MATLAB Simulink model is developed, which shows good communication performance in terms of BER (10–7) even in presence of ambient light noise with 6 dB signal to interference plus noise ratio. Our designed system is also flexible to work as a standalone lighting system, whenever data communication is not required.

There has been growing interest in development of new techniques and methods for Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Gesture Recognition is one of the important areas of this technology. Gesture Recognition means interfacing with computer using motion of human body typically hand movements. As a Handicapped person cannot move very easily and quickly if there is a fire in house or he/she cannot switch off the Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) but the same task can be done easily with hand gesture recognition. In our proposed system electrical MCB can be controlled using hand gesture recognizer. To switch on/off the MCB, we need to provide hand based gesture as an input to system.

Descriptive Survey

Objective: The aim of this study was the determine educational status, anxiety, the use of prevention methods and their knowledge level of nurses, operation theatre staffs and technicians about radiation. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional descriptive survey. The universe of our study consists of non-medical doctor staffs (nurses, technicians and operating theatre personnel) of one university and two training and research hospitals in İzmir. The sample selection was not made in our study and the personnels who accepted to participate in the study constituted the sample of the study (n=97). This was a survey of 21 questions. The survey includes participants’ demographical datas, protection type from radiation, anxiety about radiation, knowledge about radiation and education level about radiation. SPSS v21.0 were used for statistical analysis. Results: In our study, 97 participants completed the questionnaire. 51 of the participants were female (52.6%) and 46 were male (47.4%). Forty-one (42.3%) of the participants were 9 health technician (9.3%), 20 (20.6%) anesthesia technicians and 27 (27.8%) operating theatre staffs. It was found that 85 (87.6%) of the participants had operations requiring fluoroscopy in the operating room. It was learned that 29 (29.9%) participants answered the question examining the knowledge about radiation and 38 (39.2%) were educated about radiation safety. When the relationship between the participants’ answers to the question examining the knowledge about radiation and the educational level about radiation was examined, a statistically significant relationship was found between them (p=0.043). Conclusion: It was thought that non-medical doctor employees in the orthopedics and traumatology operating theatre had a high level of anxiety about radiation, had insufficient knowledge, and that training on radiation should be repeated periodically.

Hand motion acknowledgment is a characteristic method for human PC association and a zone of dynamic research in PC vision and AI. This is a zone with a wide range of conceivable applications, giving clients an easier and increasingly normal approach to speak with robots/frameworks interfaces, without the requirement for additional gadgets. Along these lines, the essential objective of signal acknowledgment explore connected to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is to make frameworks, which can distinguish explicit human motions and use them to pass on data or controlling gadgets. For that, vision-based hand signal interfaces require quick and incredibly strong hand discovery, and motion acknowledgment continuously. This paper introduces an answer, sufficiently nonexclusive, with the assistance of deep learning, permitting its application in a wide scope of human-PC interfaces, for ongoing motion acknowledgment. Investigations did demonstrated that the framework had the capacity to accomplish a precision of 99.4% as far as hand act acknowledgment and a normal exactness of 93.72% as far as unique signal acknowledgment.

Poultry producers accustomed to use light colours in broiler production as atrial to increase their productivity, especially in the developing countries to cover the animal protein gap. This experiment was planned to study the effect of different blue light colour intensities (high, medium and dim) on a recently imported Indian River (IR) broilers to Egypt. In this study, 270 one-day old Indian River broiler chicks were used. The birds were exposed to high blue light intensity (HBLI), medium blue light intensity (MBLI) and dim blue light intensity (DBLI), through a monochromatic lighting system that was installed in different rooms for 24 hours daily. The birds were randomly divided and housed into three well controlled pens of 5.46 m2 with three replicates of 30 each using a density of 17 birds/m2 in the room. The results showed that the broilers reared under DBLI had a significantly (p< 0.05) higher body weight, body weight gain, Newcastle disease virus antibody titer and foot pad dermatitis with obviously, economic Feed conversion ratio (FCR) and low activities and heterophyil/lymphocyte ratio in comparing with (MBLI) and (HBLI). In conclusion, poultry producer can use dim blue light in their farms to reduce the activities and increase the productivity of the birds.

Indonesia is an endemic area for the spread of one of the most popular ornamental fish, namely the largest betta fish in the world. In exploring their hobbies such as raising ornamental fish such as betta fish, efficient and automatic tools are more needed by betta fish farmers in aquariums today, when they have no free time or are drained by other work. This study aims to be a more automatic and efficient tool for everyone to feed fish, provide lighting, and drain aquarium water automatically, so that owners of ornamental fish do not have to worry about what ornamental fish need in the aquarium. The feeding system, in this case uses an Arduino-based control that controls the servo motor as an open and close system as the exit of fish feed into the aquarium. Aquarium lighting system, in this system uses a light sensor type LDR (Light Dependent Resistor). Automatic aquarium drain system, controlled by Arduino with water pump output. In the research, the LDR sensor will give a signal to the relay and give output to the 220 V lamp, that is, if the light intensity is below 028.7 Lux, which is above half past 6 pm and will turn off the 220 volt lamp if the light intensity is above 203.4 Lux, which is above 6 am. The servo motor will operate twice a day for feeding according to the betta fish feed needs, which is 2 times a day. The water pump will work every 4 days to drain the water automatically according to the turbidity of the water based on the time and number of betta fish in the aquarium.
